Hey. I am working to create a tool (GUI) in AIMMS platform. I have multiple pages in Page Manager for developing the tool. In one of the pages, I want to add an ‘Help’ button, clicking which should open the user manual of the tool (in pdf version - not the AIMMS user manual). Is it possible to implement this?

Thanks.

If you have the PDF in your application folder and you are using the WinUI the easiest might be to use the OpenDocument function (https://documentation.aimms.com/functionreference/system-interaction/invoking-actions/opendocument.html)

Are you using the webUI or the windowsUI, as this is not completely clear to me from your question.
